I have created a data table dbVisitor with empty rows and with two columns
then I create datagridview and put datagridview.datasource=dtVisitor;

then I write this code

dataGridView1.Rows.Add();
dataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[0].Value = "1";
dataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[1].Value = "2";
I got this error

"System.InvalidOperationException: 'Rows cannot be programmatically added to the DataGridView's rows collection when the control is data-bound."

so how can I addrows to a datagridview while this grid is bounded to an empty datatable

What I have tried:

The datatable is the data source for your grid view. So, if you want to add items to the view, you have to add them to its data source.
You should use DataTable.NewRow Method[^] instead.
Not knowing the schema of the datatable, it is hard to provide a more concrete answer, but the link holds an example of method's usage, and you can start with it and see where it gets you.
Hope this helps.
